To the Editor of the Standard:
Kindly allow space to notice the letters which
appeared in your last issue the school trouble
here, in which my name is used. A petition re-
spectfuly demonstrating against the unemployment
of John T. Herbert teacher, having been ignored
by the majority of the local directors meeting OF
citizens opposed to Mr.. Herbert called on the
1lth inst. the call being made by 10 of the leading
citizens of Glen Roy, II of whom were property
owners and all were well advanced in years, at
which the following preamble and resolutions were
unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS John 7. Herbert did not give satisfac-
tion teacher last winter, and,
WHEREAS, A petition signed by majority of pa
guardians of children who attended school
under Mr.. Herbert ignored by VIM. Patterson
and Chas. Andres, local Directors: therefore, be 1t
Resolued, That favor a teacher for the ensu-
ing term in the interest of peace and harmony.
ResoLUed, That VIM. Patterson and Chas. Andres in
ignoring petition of citizens have forfeited the
confidence of the petitioners, and that the best inter-
ests of this school district would he subserved by
their resignation as local directors.
If the directors teacher in question cannot

As to the communication of the county examining
board the people of Glen Roy quite as competent

Any attempt the part of local directors or of a

SENATORIAL CONVENTION

The Republicans of Jackson County
should consider well one important
fact that has forced its way into. pub
lie consideration. It was formely the
case that nomination in this county,
by Republican Convention meant an
election. But, unfortunately, that
condition of things seems to have van
ished. The Republicans have drifted
into manner of doing as they please
about voting for man, even after he
has received Republican nomination,
and the consequence is that we have
no assurance Of being able to elect
our whole ticket unless we act with
political wisdom. There is something
more important than mere scheming
and trickery, in the matter of County
Conventions, and while Republican
Conventions have not been greatly cur
sed by these, it is still important that
we exersise prudence and vigilance in
the matter of the County Convention,
and so conduct it that the Republicans
will all leave the Convention in splen-
did working humcr. 1t is just as easy
to have harmonious, successful Con-
vention, as to have a row after the
Convention is over. The coming Con-
vention will doubtless be one of gov
erned by common sense. There will
be no side issues, nor the introduction
Of disturbing influences.

1.-THE Standard and its friends say
the battle cry must be prohibition
and Reform. Wa0erly Watchman.
No, the Standard and its friends
do not say that. They say chat the
success Of the Republican party is the
objective, Just now. Halstead's dog
gerry infuence-and it is awful thin
in this county-demands that we stop
teaching Temperance as moral ques-
ton. There are poor weak heads that
can not realize the fact that the Tenn
perance question is engrossing the
attention Of the craftsmanship of this
country, and all that is necessary to
make it a National issue in a very
short time, is for the doggery interest
to make it test Of Republicanism or
Democracy that a man be opposed to
sobriety, decency, and the observance
of the Sabbath. The battle-cry of the
Standard is "the success Of the Re-
publican party" But it don't intend
to stop teaching that the doggery is
the meanest thing, and the most dan
gerous thing, this side of perdition.

We truly sorry to hear of the death of our old
friend Davis Mackley. Long may his memory live in
in the hearts of the people, and the great work of
temperance that he labored so zealously in may it
progress until the power be stricken from our
land and drunkenness and crime be thing of the
past.

people are, generally speaking sober and Industrious

1t would be ludicrous if it were not
so disgusting, to witness the frantic
efforts of the liquor interest to con-
vince people that every Temperance
man murdered was killed for some
other reason than because he was a
Temperance man. But the thing is
getting to be too common, and the
cause too plain. The latest, the mur-
der OF Gambrell, at,Jackson, Missis-
sippi, is one of the most brutal pieces
of all the brutal work of the Solid
South. Gambrell had been writing
strong Temperance articles, and Ham
ilton, the murderer, is one of those
dudish scoundrels who feel that they
have mission to close the mouth of
every man who dares to speak out
against the most Internally criminal
practice ever men engaged in. Ham
ilton sent word to Gambrell that he
desired to be friends with him, and
thus threw the latter off his guard.
Gambrell was passing along alone,
when Hamilton aud two confederates
drove up i4 closed carriage. They
jumped out and Hamilton fired upon
Gambrell, who fell, when the cowardly
brute beat the dying man with his
immense pistol. The Commercial
Gazette candiuly says, regarding the
cause of the murder:
''The young editor was devoted to
the cause of temperance, and had made
himself a power in the State, and
Colonel Hamilton was not merely the
lessee of the labor of the penitentiary,
he was the champion of the liquor
interest"
That's it! ''The champion of the
liquor interest,"" the fellow who is
willing to put himself down below the
level of the sheep-killing dog, in his
trucking service to his domineering
master, is ever willing to adopt the
tactics of the cut-throat in order to
silence the tongue of some honest
man, who is bold enough to speak out
against the horror of the miserable
liquor crime. There are Hamiltons in
all the States, miserable, trucking

Yet little of the old fear hung about us.
To show an instance, We went fishing one
day, and while intently watching our
lines sharp crack caused Us both to look
up. Then another crack, and husband
began to gather up his fishing tackle, say
ing:
81 think the safest place for US is at
.,ome'
I happened just then to let nv eyes
light on some water lilies near US, when
one of the buds opened and we heard the
same report.
"Why," snid 1, 81 think it is the water
lilies.''
Sure enough, as each bud burst in
bloom the same report was heard, but it
had taken away all our desire for fishing
that day.
At another time We were frightened by
the appearance of strange band of In
dams. They proved to be party of In
dams with paper stating that they were
harmless band who had permission to
leave the reservation and visit the towns
near to amuse the people with their
dances. They were given an empty house,
and all went to see them that evening,
myself included. l kept thinking oil the
time that perhaps 1t was ruse to get the
people together and massacre them. The
idea became SO strongly impressed on my
mind that I stole out before the first
dance was finished, glad to get back to
the bedside OF my sleeping little ones.
My husband laughed when told him of
my fears, and said they would have had
to kill Us with their dead snakes and mus
ical instruments, as they had no other
weapons with them.
We had now in the town q hotel, board
ing house, and several stores, and there
seemed every prospect of success,but I'M
fortunately the Indian excitement had
put a stop to further immigration, and
particularly a large train of some eight
or ten families who were on their way to
join us, on learning the danger, changed
their route. This with the indifference
shown by the other party owning half the
town, discouraged my husband, and after
about three and half years spent in the
most delightful country in the world, we
decided to return to our old home. I
hear occasionally from there. Our little
town never grew very large, but the lake
that then only knew canoe now has its
steamboats,, and some places that con-
tanned but one home when we left are
now large cities, and have the finest ms
titutions in the state.
There are gentlemen now living in
Chicago, whom I have never met since
they partook of our hospitality, who read
lily recognize this picture of our cabin
home in the woods.

Guiteau's, Niece Divorced.
Chicago Mail

A very pretty young woman, still IN her
20's, with full round face, rosy cheeks,
and clear complexion, sat In Judge
Garnett's court to-day and attracted gen
eral attention. She was well dressed and
looked happy and prosperous. 1t was
Fannie Harper, nee Scoville, niece of
Charles j. Guiteau, the assassin. She
was DESTROYS of securing divorce from
William ii. Harper, former young
lawyer of this city, and was assisted in
this by her father, George Scoville, the
attorney, who also acted as Guiteau's at
torney. Mrs. Harper gave her testimony
in clear, straightforward way, and dis
played no agitation. She was married to
Mr.. Harper, she said, July 20, 1882, in
this city, and lived with him until last
September, during which time he had
been in an intoxicated condition nearly
three-fourths OF his time. He COM
menced to drink soon after the marriage
and might have made money at his pro-
fession had he abstaineo from liquor,
but as it was he was never able to support
her, and she was compelled to take in
roomers and do dressmaking to keep him.
She tried in every possible way to reform
him, paid his expenses at the Washing
tonian home for weeks on several differ
ent occasions, but he was no better for 1T,
and finally the superintendent Of that IN
stitution refused to allow him In the
home, saying that he was beyond hope of
reform. When Harper was drunk he was
very abusive and mistreated her, besides
using threatening language. They sepa-
rated few months ago and the husband
went to California, since which time she
has heard nothing of him. The court
ordered decree.
